BEACHES OF PHUKET
Baba Hot Box at Sri Panwa
We were pleasantly surprised when we went to Baba Hot Box BBQ and Steak House at Sri Panwa in the south of Phuket Island. The quality of the meat, the sophisticated equipment used to cook and smoke it to perfection (a Spanish Josper BBQ) and, most importantly, the chef’s skills made this evening a treat.
Baba IKI
We started with Baba Iki, Japanese, which served a beautifully presented and fresh choice of sashimi. The restaurant mostly consists of a single massive table designed to create a casual party atmosphere, which is a little surprising initially. The views of the ocean through the floor-to-ceiling glass walls are superb.
Sunshine View Restaurant
Sunshine View Restaurant is perched on the roadside hill that leads to Paradise Beach, just past Tri Trang Beach, near Patong. The restaurant serves Indian, Thai, European, and seafood dishes (including huge prawns and Phuket lobsters) at reasonable prices
Pitbull Bar
Pitbull Bar is a hidden bar and restaurant located next to Tri Trang Beach. Since it’s the first in the group at the bottom of the hill and its entrance is somewhat hidden under a tree, it’s easy to miss. Expect drinks and simple Thai food in a colourful atmosphere, with bamboo furniture and umbrellas that create a fun, tropical vibe—perfect for a holiday in Phuket.

They offer beer buckets, draft Guinness & Magners, pool tables, beer pong, foosball & darts, and live sports upon request. Find the main entrance opposite the Hard Rock Cafe.
Brasserie C’est la Vie
Brasserie C’est la Vie, located in the heart of Patong, Phuket, offers a blend of traditional Thai flavours and classic French cuisine. The menu features a selection of fresh, locally sourced ingredients, including seafood and meats, prepared with care by skilled chefs.

Shore Diving in Kata Beach
The Kata Beach shore diving on the south side of Kata Beach is popular with local diving schools for training as it’s an easy entry and a short swim to the reef
Isole Restaurant
Isole is an Italian restaurant serving traditional dishes from islands in the Mediterranean, such as Sardinia and Sicily
Wat Mai Khao – วัดไม้ขาว
The Mai Khao Temple is less known but worth a photo (Wat Mai Khao). The temple itself is tucked away from the road. It doesn’t have any particular architectural interest, but it hides a little treasure: a small bird sanctuary hidden in the park behind it
Samnaksong Charoentham Kamala
Wat Baan Kamala is a modest temple near the entrance of town. It is quite modest, but the long lines of small golden Buddhas are worth a photo and a glimpse of real Thai life. Remember that this is a religious site so don’t wear too short clothes.
hom Restaurant
A dinner at Hom Restaurant at Intercontinental Phuket Resort in Kamala Beach is an experience we’ll remember for a long time. The Intercontinental name already promises luxury, and from the moment we stepped into the hotel, we could tell this place was something special.
